Description

This is a lovely trinket box I found at the auction for a woman who was a world traveler. I believe it to have a 'pietra dura' lid on a Makrana marble box and probably made in India.

"'Pietra dura' is Italian and a term for the inlay technique of using cut and fitted, highly polished colored stones to create images." wiki Makrana is pure white marble coming from that part of India (Agra, India, city of the Taj Mahal). This box is inlaid with semi-precious stones including lapis lazuli, agate, jasper, carnelian and marble. The carnelian is a lovely transparent color and the leaves are incised as well as the centers of the flowers. The box lid is 4¼" x 3¼" and the box with lid in place stands 1¾" tall.

I'm happy to ship outside the United States; please convo for a mailing cost.
